or to make it more comfortabe for you ,you can message me on IG @yinkaakint .

I am currently in Canada with my wife on VV.
After moving round, there are 3 levels of bringing the family in as observed. ( I have 6 children)
1. Asylum
2. School
3. LMIA. ( two types; fictitious and legitimate) both works


After due consideration, I think the school option with a DLI school is more appropriate and advantageous. 2 years course for 3 years WP after completion.

Someone also suggested short course during the visit before applying for school. I am looking into this and will let the house know.

On Cost of Living, Canada is pretty cheap compared to UK, Italy, France and Portugal and Schengen areas I have lived amongst others.

Vancouver’s got a very good weather and not as expensive as people say. I just got to Alberta this morning and will check out Edmonton and Calgary and see how it is.

I intend going to Montreal and New Brunswick before returning to Nigeria.

It may be important to share that I got a job offer for CDL driver and customer service job which though I declined as both will tie me down for 25 months with about $26 per hour pay.

Wishing everyone one luck.

If you are around and you have a better opportunity or idea, we can meet up and also discuss I am currently in Windermere estate .

Hello everyone,

Quick question please.

My mum is leaving for Canada to visit me in a few days. Can anyone tell me what the most recent requirements are at the Nigerian Abuja airport aside from visa and travel doc.

Does she need covid test etc ?

I left Dec 2021 which was still the early days (post covid), I'm not sure what happens now.

Thanks

Good morning everyone in house, please I need your guidance and direction on the documents I will need to apply for a Canada visit visa.
I returned from NYSC last year November since then I have not gotten any employment, I have someone in Canada who is already a Canadian citizen and have offered to give me an invitation to come to Canada but don't know how to go about it and me too don't know how to apply.
He requested I find out the requirement he need to meet and the documents he will need in order to be able to send me invitation because he is very busy with work to do the research himself. I have been following this group but have not seen concreate information's that suites my case.

my questions are
1, what qualifies, eligibility or documents he needs to be able to give me invitation and where will he go to get or apply for the invitation letter
2, what are the documents I will need to have a successful application here in Nigeria [ no employment details ]
please your sincere advice and guidance will be highly appreciated.

Google invitation letter for Canada template. Just edit and put in the details as applicable. Then he provides his passport and account statement to you. Include it in the online application. Without a job in Nigeria you have no home ties. Your chances of getting it is less than 5%.

I think, since you have no source of income,let that person who is a canadian citizen do the full sponsorship

Invitation letter with photocopies of his/her passport

Bank statement

Place of work

Tax filling report

Good credit records

In his/her IV letter ,specify that he/she will take care of your flight tickets, feeding,accommodation

Add your own home ties too(sometimes that you sure will bring u back Nigeria after your vacation)

Pls, I forgot my username and password (I am still asking myself how that happened) and I applied in 2022 or 2021. I have been receiving emails that I should sign in that I have message. I have tried and tried. I sent them a mail one time and they asked that I open another portal and move my formal application. That didn't work or maybe I didn't do that to the accurately.

I knew UK VO usually denied on using business account to apply even if your CAC is not active but that not usually common to Canada.

I used sponsor business account without tax or receipt for my student visa and got approved despite my Sponsor company account is inactive for many years.

Note: All application is not the same and no one should take this as priority because what work for me might not work for you, but I have seen many people that used only business account with multiple transactions debit and credit (like 30 pages of business trading ) that gotten their visa.



[author=Mis3man post=125766509]



Yeah it worked in the past don't forget that CANADA at the time eased eligibility and made so many applications scale through that would not have happened if things had not eased but rn the rate of refusal is high compared to before I would not advise anyone to use a business(if intend to also attatche ur personal account to have a strong case) account at this point when applications are being scrutinized more than before when eligibility was eased
